_{new version 2/09 just small tweaks...}
Natural Memories... Unnatural Dreams?

_{Symbolism... the lemon tree symbolizes friendship.
The contrast of red and green could be inorganic vs. organic (tree vs. machine, greenery vs. metal).
You can see some papers at the bottom... the poem that the doctor gave Dot is there.
There's more if you like to read into images (: I'll let it speak for itself.

This picture of Dot & Ermine was inspired by the Comic Circle, written by *indecision. Beautiful work

This literally took about 2 weeks of hours. I loved it to pieces, but I am glad to be done. Magic. I learned even more efficiency with this program... (if that's possible)...
Also, I didn't use dodge/burn.... why is that tool considered such a sin??? I don't use it often... but sometimes for speed and darkening existing shading... it would be nice. I might cave & make a second version of this.

Hmm... I even researched albinism to make Ermine look realistic. His eyes may look odd at first because his eyelashes are very light.

This file ATE my computer, sometimes it chalked up to 2GB in program, and that's all the RAM I have to run it!!!! D: fun times, hahaha

All in all it was a great experience. I hope you love it, Josceline!!

the GIMP 2.4 + scanned lineart}

All textures are from my personal files, which includes royalty-free textures from this site and others... (perfectly fine for printing). I also made several brushes... whew.

It's amazing. All of the colours, the patterns, the design of her dress... Everything! It's beautiful.

_{C: Aww, thank you!!
It seriously was a huge effort. But I loved drawing the details in their costumes and everything.
Thanks again! <3}

Very nice coloring. I also really like the use of symbolism!

~Catiris May 13, 2009

_{I'm glad you like it!
Symbolism is one of my favorite things to bury deep in art. I wish every one of my pictures could tell an intricate story.}
